Chapter 1554 Lining Up For A Beheading.

What Soverick saw as he inspected the realm made him smile.

He said proudly, "Who needs a child of the plane? What can hide from my eyes? In fact, this is giving me a good idea for what our next scheme against the first sage will be." 

He is certain that he will be able to see the dungeons that will be created from the fused spatial coordinates as soon as they are created, but he is not satisfied with that. His eyesight has given him an advantage that he intends to make total use of. He intends for Legion to take advantage of it and use it to make a move against the first sage. Aeternus grinned with anticipation and said, "It is killing two birds with one stone. I like it."

-----In The Void Universe. Outside the Tyrant Realm.

The Tyrant realm tree is surrounded by layers of tubular-shaped black battleships. Their patrolling forms look like a swarm of locust and the disturbance created by their movement created a hurricane of void energy around the realm tree. In a way, they have formed a black curtain around the realm tree that one might be fooled into thinking is a protective layer. But it is not. One of the signs of the lack of the protective function of this black curtain is the fact that the battleships don't forbid passage through them. There are openings in various sections of the hurricane where Origin gods can pass through. Anyone can pass through these openings as long as they meet three conditions. The first condition is speed and order. If anyone wants to pass through, they must be in line with the others and can only pass through the various openings. They can't try to breach the barricade through the patrol paths of the battleships, and their speed must also be less than 50% of the speed of light so that they can be scanned. Anyone who violates those two rules will be shot and killed, even if they belong to the High Heaven Realm. The third condition is the possession of a special mark. This mark was given by Mother High Heaven to every creature below the level of world god that was born in the realm of high heaven. No one else, apart from some demons of the realm of high heaven, possesses this mark. It is this mark that the battleships are scanning for. So anyone who has met the first two rules but doesn't possess this mark will also be killed. There is no mistaking these three rules because the battleships broadcast them outward to everyone around them. There is also no forgiveness. Anyone who violates the rules is destroyed immediately, without any form of warning. No one will even see the attack because it will be invisible.

Furthermore, there's more to fear aside from the battleships. Any Origin god worth anything can feel the terrifying beings lying just beneath the law matrix. Most of the Origin gods can't tell where the world gods are, but they can sure tell that they are surrounded. It is a suffocating feeling for most Origin gods. It is so suffocating that the Origin gods are moving slowly and carefully lest they offend a world god and be smitten or cursed to eternal damnation. So not only is everyone obeying the rules, but they are also walking on eggshells in front of the Tyrant Realm. They have formed long lines that extend far into the void around the realm tree. Despite how long these lines are and how many entities are in them, the line is peaceful and moving steadily. Legion-8 and Legion-9 are in line too. They are in line, like children lining up to receive food. They are so well-behaved that no one would suspect that they had considered trying to steal a battleship to examine it. Fortunately, the battleships can't read minds, or they might become the target of their wrath. This is also good for the high heaven realm because, they are not the only ones who have that thought. Many Origin gods have had it ever since they heard that the realm lord used it to defeat world gods. A lot of immortals want one of them for power or to get to the bottom of their source of power. Many have made a move earlier. Their failure is probably why no one is making a move right now. The two clones look similar as they stand in line. They are both cloaked and masked, but they have different physical features beneath their top-grade cloaks. One of them is a ghostly white apparition without arms or legs. He is an energy being in a cloak. He does have a white crown on his ghostly head, glowing brightly like a halo. No one can see this white crown because it is hidden by the effect of the black mask he has on his face, which is another top-grade artifact that hides his features. The other one is Legion-8. He is the new clone created to replace the dragon clone. He is in his humanoid form, complete with two legs and four arms. That's where his features end in his attempt at normalcy. His skin is violet. It is so deep in violet that he blends in with the black void energy around them. He also has a white crown on his head and doesn't have eyes, lips, or a nose. The two clones are similar in this aspect. Legion-8 said, "We look like chicks standing in line for sustenance from our mother." Legion-9 snickered, "We are more like jackals standing in line for our turn to ravage a helpless prey." Legion-8 agreed, but he had something else to say. "I hope you're right about the prey being helpless. If you are wrong, then we might be standing in line to be beheaded."

That gave Legion-9 pause. He said, "Nothing is certain. Everything can change and is always changing. If we have learned anything from the Supreme Law of Chaos, it is that nothing is constant but change itself." -----
